Finding my MacBook Pro

I have the app "Find My Device." It locates my two iPhones 4s and shows the name of my MacBook Pro OSX 10.7.4 but says it is offline (which it is not). It then says it will play a sound when the Mac is connected to the internet. It is but no sound is played, nor does it show it is "found." Is there something more I need to do to my MacBook Pro so it can be located? I feel my MacBook Pro is as easy to steal, with more serious consequences, than either of my iPhones.

iPhone 4S, Mac OS X (10.7.4), iMessage, iPhone
